TRANSPORTING AND LIFTING
Follow these guidelines when lifting:
• Always lift and carry the machine with the lifting holes provided at the top of the machine.
• Use lift truck and lift equipment such as straps, chains, capable of lifting 1.5 – 2 times the
gross weight of the machine and any packaging.
• Use a fork lift with sufficient lifting capacity and forks that are long enough to reach the
complete width of the machine.
• Approaching the machine from the side, lift the machine on the frame taking care that there
are no cables or pipes in the area of the forks.
• A forklift is the best way to remove machine from the skid, picking up underneath the
cabinet.
• Take proper precautions for handling and lifting.
• Remove the securing bolts that attach the machine to the pallet.
• Make sure the machine is balanced. While transporting, avoid rough or jerky motion, and
maintain a safe clearance zone around the transport area.
• Locate the machine where it is to be installed, and lower slowly until it touches the floor.
• Level the machine so that all the supporting feet are taking the weight of the machine and no
rocking is taking place.
CAUTION: Lifting and carrying operations should be carried out by
skilled workers, such as a truck operator, crane operator, etc. If a crane is used to lift
the machine, attach the lifting chain carefully, making sure the machine is well
balanced. Choose a location that will keep the machine free from vibration and dust
from other machinery. Keep in mind that having a large clearance area around the
machine is important for safe and efficient working conditions.
CAUTION: This machine is extremely top heavy. Failure to take proper
lifting precautions may cause the machine to tip causing severe damage and
possible injury or death to any person that the tipping machine contacts.

INSTALLATION
IMPORTANT:
Consider the following when looking for a suitable location to place the machine:
• Overall weight of the machine.
• Weight of material being processed.
• Sizes of material to be processed through the machine.
• Space needed for auxiliary stands, work tables, or other machinery.
• Clearance from walls and other obstacles.
• Maintain an adequate working area around the machine for safety.
• Have the work area well illuminated with proper lighting.
• Keep the floor free of oil and make sure it is not slippery.
• Remove scrap and waste materials regularly, and make sure the work area is free from
obstructing objects.
• If long lengths of material are to be fed into the machine, make sure that they will not extend
into any aisles.
Before beginning assembly, take note of the following precautions and suggestions.
• Is the machine is bolted to the pallet? Before attempting any of the assembly procedures
remove all of the loose parts and hardware and unbolt the machine from the pallet.
• LEVELING: The machine should be sited on a level, concrete floor. Provisions for securing it
should be in position prior to placing the machine. The accuracy of any machine depends on
the precise placement of it to the mounting surface. The machine should be leveled at the
bed in all directions to until the leveling accuracy is within 0.2/1000mm.
• FLOOR: This tool distributes a large amount of weight over a small area. Make certain that
the floor is capable of supporting the weight of the machine, work stock, and the operator.
The floor should also be a level surface. If the unit wobbles or rocks once in place, be sure to
eliminate by using shims.
• WORKING CLEARANCES: Take into consideration the size of the material to be processed.
Make sure that you allow enough space for you to operate the machine freely.
• POWER SUPPLY PLACEMENT: The power supply should be located close enough to the
machine so that the power cord is not in an area where it would cause a tripping hazard. Be
sure to observe all electrical codes if installing new circuits and/or outlets.
12
12
Anchoring the Machine
• Position the machine on a firm and level concrete floor and
maintain a safe operating distance around the machine.
• Anchor the machine to the floor, as shown in the diagram,
using bolts and expansion plugs or sunken tie rods that
connect through holes in the base of the stand.

ELECTRICAL
Motor Specifications
Your tool is wired for 220 volt, 60Hz alternating current. Before connecting the tool to the power
source, make sure the machine is cut off from power source.
Considerations
• Observe local electrical codes when connecting the machine.
• The circuit should be protected with a time delay fuse or circuit breaker with a amperage
rating slightly higher than the full load current of machine.
• A separate electrical circuit should be used for your tools. Before connecting the motor to the
power line, make sure the switch is in the “OFF” position and be sure that the electric current
is of the same characteristics as indicated on the tool.
• All line connections should make good contact. Running on low voltage will damage the
motor.
• In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for
electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped with an electric cord
having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged
into a matching outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances.
• Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in risk of electric
shock. The conductor with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without
yellow stripes is the equipment-grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the electric
cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-grounding conductor to a live
terminal.
CAUTION: HAVE ELECTRICAL UTILITIES CONNECTED TO MACHINE BY
A CERTIFIED ELECTRICIAN!
Check if the available power supply is the same as listed on the machine nameplate.
WARNING: Make sure the grounding wire (green) is properly connected
to avoid electric shock. DO NOT switch the position of the green grounding wire if
any electrical plug wires are switched during hookup.
WARNING: In all cases, make certain the receptacle in question is
properly grounded. If you are not sure, have a qualified electrician check the
receptacle.
16
16
• Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are not
completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the tool is properly grounded.
• Repair or replace damaged or worn cord immediately.

No WIRE GAUGE
An undersized cord decreases line voltage, causing loss of power and overheating. All cords
should use a ground wire and plug pin. Replace any damaged cords immediately.
Power cord connection:
1. Turn the main disconnect switch on the control panel to the OFF position.
2. Unwrap the power cord and route the cord away from the machine toward the power supply.
Route the power cord so that it will NOT become entangled in the machine in any way.
Route the cord to the power supply is a way that does NOT create a trip hazard.
3. Connect the power cord to the power supply and check that the power cord has not been
damaged during installation.
4. When the hammer and dies area is clear of any obstruction. The main disconnect may be
turn ON to test the operation. Turn the main disconnect to OFF when the machine is not in
operation.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT allow the cord to become and entanglement or trip hazard.
DO NOT allow the cord to have material dropped or resting on the cord causing it to be pinched
or cut. DO NOT allow the cord to be positioned in a way that will allow it to be stepped on or
rolled over.

OPERATION
Tooling Selection and Set-up
• Your tooling choice is based off of the material you are bending.
• Using a sheet metal tonnage die gap chart 9available on the internet), find the material
thickness and then the width. Make sure the tonnage is within limit of the machine. The chart
will give the die width requirement for the chosen material.
• With the correct tools chosen, follow the “CHANGING AND ADJUSTING DIES” procedure to
set the dies as needed.
Setting the Ram End Position
• With the dies engaged, bump the ram up with the foot pedal to give clearance between the
dies.
• Rotate the ram end position handwheel (A) “CW” in the
“up” direction.
• Rotate 4-5 turns, and press the “down” foot pedal
watching to see if the dies come in contact. You are trying
to establish a gap in between the dies when the upper
ram reaches its final end position.
• Once a gap is established, press the down pedal to make
sure the upper ram is fully extended (down).
• Rotate the ram position handwheel (A) “up” until the
material being bent just fits in between the top ram and
the top of the lower bend die.
• At this point “0” the ram position counter (located behind the handwheel) by pressing
“reset” on the counter.
CAUTION: Always wear proper eye protection with side shields, safety
footwear, and leather gloves to protect from burrs and sharp edges.
CAUTION: Keep hands and fingers clear of the clamping beam. Stand off
to the side of the machine to avoid getting hit with the bending apron as it comes up
to bend. When handling large heavy materials make sure they are properly
supported.

• The counter reads incrementally in inches of ram travel. These numbers can be documented
for every different size of material for future reference of degrees.
• Cut some sample material to perform some test bends.
• Rotate the ram position (A) CCW and you will watch the ram slowly extend into the lower die
opening, these end positions will be relative to bend angles.
• Retract the ram with the up foot penal until the top ram is about 1/4" above the material
being bent.
• At this point rotate the retract position hand wheel (B) CW until the two indicator arrows (C)
are aligned with each other. This sets the ram retract position.
• Press the “Down” foot pedal again until it reaches its end position. Switch the machine to
“AUTO” mode. The top ram will automatically return to the retract position that was just set.
• Adjust the back stop (D) as required.
• Insert a piece of test material and activate the “down” foot pedal and hold until the ram
reaches it fully extended position. When the pressure gauge displays 2500psi, release the
foot pedal.
• Check the bend angle of the sample and adjust the ram position accordingly to achieve the
desired bend angle. It is always best to make the ram position adjustments in the “down”
direction. So if you need to go less degrees, rotate the ram position up, then back down and
gradually get to you final position in the down direction. This builds in accuracy and
consistency by removes any tolerance variation from the adjusting mechanism.
General Notes
• Always bend in the center of the machine to avoid machine damage. This will evenly place
the load throughout the machine.
• When bending heavier material hold the machine at the final position and let pressure build
up to the relief setting. This will ensure the ram fully reaches its end position making up for
the load of material.
• Always make sure you have the correct tool with for the material being bent, having too tight
of an opening can damage the machine and tooling.

CHANGING AND ADJUSTING DIES
Replacing Upper Die
Note: Never install or use dies that are cracked, chipped, or otherwise damaged.
Make sure dies are the correct size and type to reduce the risk of overload.
1. Safely start the machine and place the selector switch in JOG mode.
5. Lower the ram until the top die is approximately 1/32” (.79mm) from bottoming in the lower
die.
6. Stop the machine and turn the main disconnect to OFF.
7. Evenly loosen the ten retaining cap
screws (A) about two full turns.
8. Slide the die out. Make sure there is
adequate clearance around the machine
to safely remove and replace the die.
9. Carefully slide in the new die.
10. When positioned and centered, evenly
tighten the ten retaining cap screws to
lock the die in position.
11. From the end of the die, check upper and
lower die alignment. If the die alignment
is not correct, follow the lower die
rotation/replacement instructions to
loosen the lower die and align the dies.
12. Turn power on to the machine and raise the ram to the retracted position.
13. Begin normal operations and recheck the cap screw tightness after 1 or 2 bends.
WARNING: Always keep hands and fingers from between the dies.
The dies supplied with the press are heavy. Have an assistant and a suitable lifting
device available. DO NOT try and remove by yourself.

Rotating/Replacing Lower Die
Note: Never install or use dies that are cracked, chipped, or otherwise damaged.
Make sure dies are the correct size and type to reduce the risk of overload.
1. Raise the ram to the top position and unplug the machine from the power supply.
2. Loosen the four adjusting bolts (A) (two in front and two in the back) which align and secure
the die to the table.
3. Carefully rotate or remove the die on/from
the table. Do not drop the die as this will
cause damage and or injury.
4. With the desired bending groove selected,
center the die across the width of the table
and visually align the desired die groove to
the upper die.
5. Connect power to the machine and start the
pump.
6. Place the selector switch in JOG mode.
7. Verify that hands and all tools and materials
are clear and slowly lower the top die gently
into the selected V-groove of the bottom die
to position it.
8. When the top die is placing light pressure on the lower die in the desired groove, stop the
machine and disconnect power.
9. Evenly tighten the adjusting bolts (A). Take care not to over tighten the back bolts for
example which would place forward pressure on the lower die and cause a misalignment
when the upper die is retracted.
10. When the adjustment bolts are evenly tight and securing the lower die in position, tighten
the jam nuts to lock the bolt positions.
WARNING: Always keep hands and fingers from between the dies.
The dies supplied with the press are heavy. Have an assistant and a suitable lifting
device available. DO NOT try and remove by yourself.

BENDING ALLOWANCE
In order to bend sheet metal accurately, you will need to consider the total length of each bend.
This is referred to as bend allowance. Subtract the bend allowance from the sum of the outside
dimensions of the piece part to obtain the actual overall length or width of the piece. Because of
differences in sheet metal hardness, and whether the bend is made with the grain or against it,
exact allowances must sometimes be made by trial and error. However bend allowances for
general use can be obtained from metal working books or from the Internet.
UNDERSTANDING SPRINGBACK
Springback, also known as elastic recovery, is the result of the metal wanting to return to its
original shape after undergoing compression and stretch. After the bending leaf is removed from
the metal and the load is released, the piece part relaxes, forcing the bent portion of the metal to
return slightly to its original shape. The key to obtaining the correct bend angle is to over bend
the metal a little and allow it to spring back to the desired angle. All metals exhibit a certain
amount of spring back.
MATERIAL SELECTION
When selecting materials keep these instructions in mind:
• Material must be clean and dry. (without oil)
• Material should have a smooth surface so it processes easily.
• Dimensional properties of material must be consistent and not exceed the machine capacity
values.
• Chemical structure of material must be consistent.
• Buy certificated steel from the same vendor when possible.
CAUTION: It must be determined by the customer that materials being
processed through the machine are NOT potentially hazardous to operator or
personnel working nearby.

LUBRICATION AND MAINTENANCE
• Check daily for any unsafe conditions and fix immediately.
• Check that all nuts and bolts are properly tightened.
• On a weekly basis clean the machine and the area around it.
• Lubricate threaded components and sliding devices.
• Apply rust inhibitive lubricant to all non-painted surfaces.
Note: Proper maintenance can increase the life expectancy of your machine.
Lubrication
• The power unit oil should be checked monthly.
• If the oil get really discolored or very dark, it should be changed
• Check periodically for leaks. If a leak is detected, consult RMD, Inc.
• On very hot days, gear oil may drip from the breather; this is normal expansion of the oil.
• Be sure to keep the slide ways and lead screws lubricated with light hydraulic oil or
equivalent.
• The only grease zerks on the machine are the main pivots and the slide blocks. Grease the
zerks every 8hrs of use.
• Check for any worn or damaged parts and replace immediately.
WARNING: Make sure the electrical disconnect is OFF before working on
the machine.
Maintenance should be performed on a regular basis by qualified personnel.
Always follow proper safety precautions when working on or around any machinery.

Hydraulic System
Hydraulic Oil
Check the oil level in the tank periodically.
Changing the oil after the first 500 working hours. Thereafter, changing the oil after ever 2,000
working hours.
Filter
Replace the filter with each oil change.
Hydraulic Connections
Check the entire hydraulic system for leaks daily. Repair any leaks found before placing the
machine in operation. Replace any fitting that will not tighten to stop the leak.
Replace lines and hoses if they have been damaged in any way.
If the valve block is leaking, start by replacing the 0-ring and compounding seal ring.
Mechanical Parts
Check all mechanical parts regularly, as well as the chain transmissions and the guides.
Relief Valve
The adjustment of the relief valve is very important for a durable operation of machine.
The value normally set for this adjustment equals the maximum allowed working pressure.
If our service engineer finds that a relief valve has been adjusted to a higher valve than allowed,
our company will decline all responsibility regarding the guarantee.
Note: Unless necessary, don't adjust the relief valve, it will affect the capability of
the machine.
